I have Access 2003 and am storing application info for my company. I would
like to scan a resume and attach a path to this resume for each record in my
database.

How would I set up a way to store this file path by clicking a button and
also retrieve the path by clicking a different button.

Any help is appreciated.

Thanks
Nick
 
you could use the OpenFileAPI at Access web and just grab the path to
the file and write it to your DB - into a text field. then you could
format it in your form as a hyperlink.
Retrieve the path from where? the database?
 
I want to store the path in a field for each record, and then have a way to
"open" the path when I am in a certain record. I think your suggestion may
solve this by setting up a hyperlink.

Is this solution going to be able to give a unique path for each record?
